14: Xiaoyao Sect's Interception

“Now that Xuanjian Sect is without a leader, if we can win over Xuanjian Sect in the Tianlan Region, then within the Juefeng Secret Realm, not only will we have a few more cannon fodders, but perhaps we can also increase our quota by 1 to 2 spots.”

“This is undoubtedly a good thing for us.”

Hearing her disciple’s question, the woman called Elder Tang calmly explained, and as she spoke, she also showed contempt for Xuanjian Sect, as if their only purpose was to be used as cannon fodder.

“Now, let’s first go to Acacia Sect. They have intermarried with some deacons in our sect.”

“Speaking of which, we have some special relations.”

“This time, with the opening of the Juefeng Secret Realm, we will also unite with them, which can be considered doing them a favor.”

“At the same time, as local strongmen within You Province, although their strength is inferior to ours, they can also help us ward off some minor troubles.”

“Ning Shuang, when you’re out and about, it’s not just about strength, but also about social etiquette.”

“Within the sect, you are a favored child of heaven, and you can ignore it.”

“However, outside the sect, not everyone knows your identity, so you still need to pay more attention.”

She turned her head and looked at the female disciple, her eyes full of affection and admiration.

Elder Tang valued this disciple greatly, speaking earnestly and patiently explaining, while also giving a warning.

“Thank you, Elder Tang, for informing me.”

“Ning Shuang will study hard.”

She nodded in response, her voice somewhat indifferent. Although she said she would pay attention, it was clear that the woman in front of her didn't truly take it to heart.

Perhaps she would only truly learn her lesson after suffering a setback.

People teaching people is ineffective; events teaching people is instantly understood.

This old saying is very reasonable...

“Sect Master, many people from other places closer to our You Province, such as Qing Province, Ying Province, and Jing Province, have already arrived in the Tianlan Region.”

“Recently, our Tianlan Region has been a bit unstable.”

“In addition, from the Central Continent Holy Land, several sects related to Acacia Sect have also sent people over.”

“Perhaps some have already arrived, and some are still on the way. Should we continue to encroach on Xuanjian Sect’s territory?”

“Will we clash with those people?”

“The Juefeng Secret Realm is about to open. It seems this will make us enemies.”

Within Xiaoyao Sect’s main hall, a meeting was also being held, and the topic of discussion was naturally how to devour the large piece of fat that was Xuanjian Sect.

The two sects had long-standing grievances, with constant minor frictions. Since the establishment of the sects, there had been over a hundred years of enmity, which could not be erased.

Perhaps only the annihilation of one side could truly end such enmity.

“Stop?”

“Why should we stop?”

“Xuanjian Sect is such a large piece of fat. We are tempted, so why wouldn’t others be tempted?”

He snorted coldly. Clearly, Xiaoyao Sect Master Jiang Chengyun did not want to give up, but rather wanted to hit a man when he was down.

His eyes revealed a fierce look as he glanced at the elder who had just spoken to persuade him, and a hint of killing intent actually arose in his heart.

Jiang Chengyun had every reason to suspect that the elder was an undercover agent sent by Xuanjian Sect.

Of course, this feeling was only for an instant. He then hid the killing intent and continued, “I believe that no one who is out and about is a fool. They also know how to maximize their benefits.”

“Xuanjian Sect is nothing more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.”

“Ye Liufeng died too early, it’s only because his sect is full of traitors.”

At this point, his gaze swept across several elders in the main hall again, as if trying to find a few spies among them, full of warning.

“As for Acacia Sect, I will naturally send people to discuss it.”

“We will try to avoid conflict.”

“After the Juefeng Secret Realm closes, and everyone leaves the Tianlan Region, I will then contend for supremacy.”

“Dominating You Province is just around the corner!”

“I have been in Reaching the Profound Eighth Stage for a long time. Perhaps, after this, I will be able to successfully enter the Dao and reach the Ninth Stage, elevating our sect’s strength to another level.”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, his body even trembling inexplicably. This was caused by extreme excitement. In a blur, Jiang Chengyun had already seen that beautiful tomorrow.

In his opinion, now was the time to act. How could he easily give up?

Such a large piece of fat was coveted by everyone in You Province.

The arrival of people from other provinces could not make him stop.

In fact, he was already prepared. When these people arrived, if they truly wanted a share, they would have to ask him.

A powerful dragon does not suppress a local snake. If the sect masters of those sects did not come, then with his strength at Reaching the Profound Eighth Stage, he was not afraid of the elders leading the teams.

And after some time, once he had fully digested all the benefits, entering the Dao at the Ninth Stage would only be a matter of time.

Except for the Central Continent Holy Land, he was truly not afraid of people from other provinces causing him trouble.

Therefore, he now needed to send people to Acacia Sect to temporarily hold back those from the Central Province.

“We will all follow the Sect Master’s arrangements.”

Seeing that their Sect Master’s mind was made up, the other elders also had no need to ask for trouble and nodded in unison.

The elder who had just advised Jiang Chengyun felt a chill in his heart, because he had just detected Jiang Chengyun’s killing intent.

“Danger!”

“I need to run quickly. This elder position is really not for humans!”

This was the elder’s truest thought.

Escape was but a thought away.

“However, there is one more thing.”

“That is, according to our inside informant in Xuanjian Sect, Xuanjian Sect seems to have launched a new trial.”

“Led by the ten Personal Disciples, they are going to the places we have encroached upon, wanting to reclaim those territories.”

“Shouldn’t we also send out corresponding disciples to stop them?”

“If we can eliminate a few of those Xuanjian Sect’s Personal Disciples, it would also be a good thing.”

“If the younger generation is all killed off by us, Xuanjian Sect will truly decline.”

“A Xuanjian Sect with a generational gap poses no threat to us at all.”

In the main hall, standing at the very front, Xiaoyao Sect’s Great Elder Yang Jing, seeing the situation, quickly brought up another matter.

It was no wonder Xiaoyao Sect could encroach on Xuanjian Sect so severely. Look at their sect, with news from their spies spreading so quickly, they were bound to be so powerful.

“Trial?”

“I didn’t expect Xia Junling to have such courage.”

“If it were Ye Liufeng, he probably wouldn’t be so decisive.”

“He, a dignified man, is inferior to a weak woman. He’s truly regressing with age.”
